Well you'll have to!My hearing is the one thing that still works well.Telly is usually only set around 8 to 10 unless it’s the occasional programme with poor sound quality.
Talking of which, can’t wait for All Creatures Great and Small at 9
That or I'll tell you where his hand disappeared this time.

According to the information sheet given to me by the practice nurse they no longer syringe but wash it out
I’ll send the lurid details when I have had my treatment.I did wonder why there was a marcher pressure washer in the corner of the treatment room.

Morning and Merry Christmas to all. Enjoy your respective days whether it’s surrounded by family or trying to amuse yourself if you’re on your tod.
I will head out soon for a decent walk as I don’t think I’ll go back out later as I usually just hide inside today.

I've been up since 6.30. The Turkey is in the oven, shouldbe done around 10.30. We are going to our son's place for dinner, but his oven isn't big enough for a Turkey and all the other stuff he is cooking. So we said we would bring the Turkey with us.
Have a good day everyone.
